A little fun for Friday, courtesy of Egypt Air. But first: Remember the game Taboo, where you must describe an object to your teammates without using the word itself? The game can sometimes be maddening because you have to jump through all kinds of hoops to describe something simple - say, love - without actually using the word.
Anyway, it appears the security services at Egypt Air have been playing Taboo. Or, at the very least, they seem unable to address the taboo of wine bottle openers (must not say the dreaded word!). So take a look at how the airline chooses to warn passengers about items not allowed as carry-on:

Corkscrew doesn't mention the tasty, intoxicating fermented grape beverage. However, part of the word is slang for fornication. May that is what they are avoiding.
